Pulling alongside the Santissima Trinidad for a devastating broadside.
The colour scheme is the classic Royal Navy yellow with black trim and red gunport covers. The Caledonia was painted in the scheme later in her life, I believe; I've not been able to confirm that she looked like this at the beginning of her career.
The rigging was again relatively simple; I made a few mistakes with the ratlines but nothing I can't live with.
One more to go before I decide whether to buy any more. I have to admit to really enjoying working on these.
Splendid work Sir.
